I feel for ya Abby, I had to deal with a mouse in my apartment the other year and didn’t want to have to resort to mouse traps, as I see myself as more of a catch and release sort of guy…but it was quickly apparent that there wasn’t anything else that was going to work. Just one of those things of life, I guess.
The plug in ultrasonic pest repellers work great! I had a mouse in my kitchen that was eluding my humane traps. Tried the plug ins, and no more mice OR bugs in 15 years. Chemical free and humane.
My kid had a pet gerbil, and I bought one of those fancy plastic “habitats” with the multiple rooms and levels and tunnels. Nobody told me that they can chew their way out in the first 2-3 days. So then I had to get a non-killing mousetrap to catch it. That worked great (baited with peanut butter), but it was $30, rather expensive 30 yrs ago. Throughout their childhood I think I ended up spending about $20 on pet rodents and about $200 on their accessories.

What I found works best is Decon rat poison. Put where the mice can get it but the cats can’t. Gets rid of them pretty quick.

Gets rid of which quick….mice or cats?

I had to buy those once, the extra large ones. They stole it. Seriously, it was gone the next day, never found it.

Trap = dead mouse to dispose of. DECON = mummified mouse body you HOPE you find some day.
